NEW York society queen Blaine Trump was so despondent when she found out her beloved husband, Robert Trump, was having an affair, she had an “accidental overdose” on pills, several friends confirmed to Page Six.

In October 2004, Blaine ended up staying at Mount Sinai for several days after she learned Robert had bought a $3.7 million house on Long Island for his girlfriend, Ann Marie Pallan and, to make matters worse, was leaving her for Pallan.

A spy in the hospital at the same time as Blaine said, “She was in the VIP wing – very posh. Every day, Robert would come visit her with flowers and chocolates for not just her but the nurses. He was very cheerful, always smiling and greeting everyone happily. Everyone was just so appalled because we all knew . . . the reasons Blaine was in there. It was just disgusting.”

A rep for Blaine said she couldn’t be reached for comment.

After she recuperated, Blaine tried to forgive her husband and save the marriage, but he refused to leave Pallan, whom he met while she worked in the Trump family real estate office in Brooklyn, and so Blaine agreed to a divorce.

Since then, the gorgeous blonde has tried to keep her head high and settle out of court, but Robert, Donald‘s brother, has insisted on taking the case to trial.

Last week, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Sarabeth Evans turned down his motion to have the divorce case heard in Dutchess County, where he owns a house.

In her ruling, Evans noted that the couple lived “exclusively” in Manhattan during their marriage, and that Robert didn’t deny living since then in Nassau County in a house he bought for Pallan.
